So, with the latest PPA updates, Ubuntu Xenial recognizes my G2000 as ascanner. But I'm having the issue where usblp is claiming the device,causing this to appear in dmesg, and the scanning jobs just stutter out:"usb 1-1.4: usbfs: interface 1 claimed by usblp while 'scangui' sets config#1"

I tried many workarounds including writing C code to release the devicefrom usblp as documented here:https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=723696#c2

But usblp releases it and then claims it.scanimage does not work from command line, or via xsane or scangearmp2.

This brings back memories. Mind you, they're not particularly goodones.

The libusb_reset_device() function[1] basically does a disconnect andreconnect of the device, so usblp claiming it again is not a surprise.
